    I remember they were supposed to release an updated version back in March. Anyone know anything about that?

    Thanks!

    I spoke to their distributor about it at the NAB. He said that they postponed the mark 2 until the unload the current version inventory. I think he said September.
    As nice as that lens is it could really use image quality improvement, falls behind the Nikon and even Canon offerings pretty clearly....
